With the completion of the SAS 70 Type II examinations, Data393 can help Internet colocation and managed hosting customers address their control requirements over the processing of financial data and other sensitive company information under Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404 (SOX 404). SAS 70 certification enables Data393 to provide confidence among its customers and to further expand into the enterprise market by delivering certification of the controls needed for compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley.

SAS 70 is an auditing standard developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and is the guidance by which service organizations can disclose their control activities and processes to their customers in a uniform format. A SAS 70 report is often used by customers and customers' external auditors to meet the requirements of section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Data393's audit evaluated controls related to service delivery and operations, infrastructure maintenance, customer implementation, change management, backup of programs and data files, and logical and physical data center access.
